You know though, that was not our most exciting and memorable Christmas play with the 4Rs. When my daughters were 3 we decided to make a big celebration out of the evening.  We loaded everyone up in the car, invited the grandparents, and headed out to dinner and then the play.  During our dinner at Ruby Tuesday Lauren had a small accident.  Well.  No time to go home, no time to stop somewhere.  So, the solution was to take off the tights and underpants under her dress.  You can totally see where I am headed, can't you?  

I told her to be careful, and leave her dress DOWN all evening.  Well, of course she didn't.  The first time, my lovely daughter - front and center- accidentally twirled her dress up.  When she realized she was getting a big reaction from the audience she kept doing it, until the teacher grabbed her, and made her stand in the back.  I'd like to say that I can't imagine a Christmas play being more memorable than that one, but I don't want to jinx myself.  We still have one more play to get through. I am starting to think that preschool is going to be glad to see the last of us!  

Here they are- dresses down!
